The only clue was that her late husband Dennis used to play rugby, but he’s not in the photo and the era looks well before his time.
Colleen’s father John Ryan also played rugby in the East Coast area during the 1930 and early 1940s, but he’s not pictured in the photo. There is no writing on the back either.
“It would be great if it could find a good home,” she said.
“It might bring back memories.”
